Yesterday I walked into the poolhall and saw a guy who is known for cheap action. I didn't have a ton of cash on me, so I asked him to play $20-30 sets. He said $10, so I said how about $15, and he agreed. I won two sets and he quit, and we split the time. My share of the time came to $8, so I was $22 winner. Later on at night time I played a ring game for a few hours, and I shot horrible. It was one of those nights where I was always making the cheap moneyballs and always paying out on the more expensive ones. When the game broke at 1am, after paying time, I lost $44 in the ring game, being a $22 loser for the day at the poolhall. Later on, at about 3am, I got an itch to play some live action texas 'holdem. I really wanted to go badly, but the casino was a 25 minute drive, and plus it was 3am. I gave in to the itch, and drove all the way to the nearest casino, where a bunch of my coworkers from the poolhall were at. I got there and jumped on the $3-$6 table, and at 5am I was up $50 when I quit the game. Before I left the casino I ordered some breakfast and bought some smokes. I stopped at the gas station on the way home, and while I was pumping gas I counted the money in my wallet because I wasn't sure how much I had left. Turned out after the whole day, my total winnings was $2, and combining that with the money I started out with, I had exactly $122 at the end of the day. Weird huh?????????

Reminds me of the joke, a guy goes to the track and says, "I hope I at least break even, I can use the money".

Well you defied my old saying. You know you're in a bad game when you can't win, you can't break even, and you can't quit the game.

Too many times in this game breaking even is considered a victory lol. Here's one for ya. "if you want to double your money, take it out of your pocket, fold it in half, and put it back in." /ccboard/images/graemlins/smile.gif St
